Hi everyone,
I hope you're doing well Maybe some of you are on vacation If that's the case, enjoy it!
At InnerFrench, we don't take a break this summer Like last year,
we will continue to publish a new episode every two weeks to accompany you to the beach,
to the mountains or to the office if you don't go on vacation Don't worry,
we're going to take vacation anyway at InnerFrench but we organized ourselves so that there is always someone to publish the episodes and that's largely thanks to Ingrid so thank you to her Anyway,
today, you heard it,
we're going to talk about immersion We often say that it's the best way to learn a language to spend time in a country where it is spoken but it's not given to everyone When we are young,
we don't necessarily have the financial means to do it and later, when we have a family, a career,
it's logistics that blocks But
if I told you that we can learn in immersion without leaving our country that's what we're going to see today with my guest,
Alexandra She is from Marseille but it's not in Marseille that I met her
since she lives in the United States No,
I met her thanks to her husband who is a loyal listener of the podcast I discovered that Alexandra is a teacher in an immersion program in Utah and when I say immersion it's not just a few hours of French per week No,
Alexandra's students learn all their subjects in French Maths, sciences, history...
Everything happens in Molière's language from the first day of school So I was very curious to understand how this kind of program works what methods they use and especially
if it really works Alexandra kindly accepted to answer all my questions and to make you enjoy it in the podcast So now,
I'll let you listen to our conversation Hi Alexandra.
Hi Hugo.
Thank you for accepting my invitation.
